The price of a house is originally listed at $105,000. the owners are having a hard time selling it and decide to reduce the price to $88,200. what is the percentage decrease of the price of the house?

A percentage change can be calculated using ...

... percent change = ((new value) - (original value))/(original value) × 100%

Filling in the numbers gives

... percent change = ((88,200 - 105,000)/(105,000) × 100% = -0.16 × 100% = -16%
